dsconfig list-log-publishers --help |
authrate | Perform repeated authentications against an LDAP directory server, where each authentication consists of a search to find a user followed by a bind to verify the credentials for that user. |
backup | Run full or incremental backups on one or more Directory Proxy Server backends. This tool also supports the use of a properties file to pass predefined command-line arguments. See Saving Options in a File for more information. |
base64 | Encode raw data using the base64 algorithm or decode base64-encoded data back to its raw representation. |
collect-support-data | Collect and package system information useful in troubleshooting problems. The information is packaged as a zip archive that can be sent to a technical support representative. |

create-rc-script | Create an RC script to start, stop, and restart the Directory Proxy Server on UNIX-based systems. |
create-systemd-script | Create a systemd script to start and stop the Directory Proxy Server on Linux-based systems. |
deliver-one-time-password | Generate and deliver a one-time password to a user through some out-of-band mechanism. That password can then be used to authenticate using the UNBOUNDID-DELIVERED-OTP SASL mechanism. |
deliver-password-reset-token | Generate and deliver a single-use token to a user through some out-of-band mechanism. The user can provide that token to the password modify extended request in lieu of the user's current password in order to select a new password. |
dsconfig | View and edit the Directory Proxy Server configuration. |
dsjavaproperties | Configure the JVM arguments used to run the Directory Proxy Server and associated tools. Before launching the command, edit the properties file located in config/java.properties to specify the desired JVM options and JAVA_HOME environment variable. |
dump-dns | Obtain a listing of all of the DNs for all entries below a specified base DN in the Directory Proxy Server. |
encrypt-file | Encrypt or decrypt data using a key generated from a user-supplied passphrase, a key generated from an encryption settings definition, or a key shared among servers in the topology. The data to be processed can be read from a file or standard input, and the resulting data can be written to a file or standard output. You can use this command to encrypt and subsequently decrypt arbitrary data, or to decrypt encrypted backups, LDIF exports, and log files generated by the server. |
encryption-settings | Manage the server encryption settings database. |
enter-lockdown-mode | Request that the Directory Proxy Server enter lockdown mode,
during which it only processes operations requested by users holding the
lockdown-mode privilege. |
export-reversible-passwords |
Requests that the server export entries from a specified backend in LDIF form, including clear-text representations of any passwords encoded with a reversible storage scheme. This tool can only be used over a secure connection and when authenticated as a user with the permit-export-reversible-passwords privilege. The output is encrypted using a key generated from either a user-supplied passphrase or an encryption settings definition. |
generate-totp-shared-secret | Generate a shared secret that may be used to generate time-based one-time password (TOTP) authentication codes for use in authenticating with the UNBOUNDID-TOTP SASL mechanism, or in conjunction with the validate TOTP password extended operation. |
global-index-size | Estimate the size in memory of one or more global indexes from the actual number of keys, the configured number of keys and the average key size. The estimate could be slightly higher or lower than the actual size. An estimate can be provided for more than one index in one invocation by providing multiple sets of options. |
identify-references-to-missing-entries | Identify entries containing one or more attributes that reference entries that do not exist. This might require the ability to perform unindexed searches and/or the ability to use the simple paged results control. |
identify-unique-attribute-conflicts | Identify unique attribute conflicts. In particular, it identifies values of one or more attributes that are supposed to exist only in a single entry but are found in multiple entries. |
indent-ldap-filter | Parse a provided LDAP filter string and displays it as a multi-line form that makes it easier to understand its hierarchy and embedded components. If possible, it also simplifies the provided filter in certain ways (for example, by removing unnecessary levels of hierarchy, like an AND embedded in an AND). |
ldap-debugger | Intercept and decode LDAP communication. |
ldap-diff | Compare the contents of two LDAP directory server servers. |
ldap-result-code | Display and query LDAP result codes. |
ldapcompare | Perform compare operations in an LDAP directory server. Compare operations might be used to efficiently determine whether a specified entry has a given value. |
ldapdelete | Delete one or more entries from an LDAP directory server. You can provide the DNs of the entries to delete using named arguments, as trailing arguments, from a file, or from standard input. Alternatively, you can identify entries to delete using a search base DN and filter. |
ldapmodify | Apply a set of add, delete, modify, and/or modify DN operations to a
directory server. Supply the changes to apply in LDIF format, either from
standard input or from a file specified with the
ldifFile argument. Change records must be separated
by at least one blank line. |
ldappasswordmodify | Update the password for a user in an LDAP directory server using the password modify extended operation (as defined in RFC 3062), a standard LDAP modify operation, or an Active Directory-specific modification. |
ldapsearch | Process one or more searches in an LDAP directory server. |
ldif-diff | Compare the contents of two files containing LDIF entries. The output will be an LDIF file containing the add, delete, and modify change records needed to convert the data in the source LDIF file into the data in the target LDIF file. |
ldifmodify | Apply a set of changes (including add, delete, modify, and modify DN operations) to a set of entries contained in an LDIF file. The changes will be read from a second file (containing change records rather than entries), and the updated entries will be written to a third LDIF file. Unlike ldapmodify, the ldifmodify cannot read the changes to apply from standard input. |
ldifsearch | Search one or more LDIF files to identify entries matching a given set of criteria. |
leave-lockdown-mode | Request that the Directory Proxy Server leave lockdown mode and resume normal operation. |
list-backends | List the backends and base DNs configured in Directory Proxy Server. |
load-ldap-schema-file | Load the schema definitions contained in a specified LDIF file into the schema for a running server. This tool can only be used in conjunction with a server instance running on the local system. |
make-ldif | Generate LDIF data based on a definition in a template file. For example template files, see the server's config/MakeLDIF directory. In particular, the examples-of-all-tags.template file shows how to use all of the tags for generating values. |
manage-account | Retrieve or update information about the current state of a user
account. Processing is performed using the password policy state extended
operation, and you must have the password-reset
privilege to use this extended operation. |
manage-certificates | Manage certificates and private keys in a JKS or PKCS #12 key store. |
manage-extension | Install or update extension bundles. An extension bundle is a package of extension(s) that utilize the Server SDK to extend the functionality of the PingDirectoryProxy Server. Extension bundles are installed from a zip archive or file system directory. The Directory Proxy Server will be restarted if running to activate the extension(s). |
manage-profile | Generate, compare, install, and replace server profiles. |
manage-tasks | Access information about pending, running, and completed tasks scheduled in the Directory Proxy Server. |
manage-topology | Manage the topology registry. |
modrate | Perform repeated modifications against an LDAP directory server. |
move-subtree | Move all entries in a specified subtree from one server to another. |
parallel-update | Perform add, delete, modify, and modify DN operations concurrently using multiple threads. |
prepare-external-server | Prepare and a directory server for communication.. |
profile-viewer | View information in data files captured by the Directory Proxy Server profiler. |
register-yubikey-otp-device | Register a YubiKey OTP device with the Directory Server for a specified user so that the device may be used to authenticate that user with the UNBOUNDID-YUBIKEY-OTP SASL mechanism. Alternately, it may be used to deregister one or more YubiKey OTP devices for a user so that they may no longer be used to authenticate that user. |
reload-http-connection-handler-certificates | Reload HTTPS Connection Handler certificates |
reload-index | Reload the contents of the global index. |
remove-attribute-type-from-schema | Safely remove an attribute type definition from the server schema. |
remove-backup | Safely remove a backup and optionally all of its dependent backups from the specified Directory Proxy Server backend. |

restore | Restore a backup of a Directory Proxy Server backend. |
revert-update | Revert this server package's most recent update. |
review-license | Review and/or indicate your acceptance of the license agreement defined in /legal/LICENSE.txt. |
rotate-log | Trigger the rotation of one or more log files. |
sanitize-log | Sanitize the contents of a server log file to remove potentially sensitive information while still attempting to retain enough information to make it useful for diagnosing problems or understanding load patterns. The sanitization process operates on fields that consist of name-value pairs. The field name is always preserved, but field values might be tokenized or redacted if they might include sensitive information. Supported log file types include the file-based access, error, sync, and resync logs, as well as the operation timing access log and the detailed HTTP operation log. Sanitize the audit log using the scramble-ldif tool. |
schedule-exec-task | Schedule an exec task to run a specified command in the server. To run an exec task, a number of conditions must be satisfied: the server's global configuration must have been updated to include 'com.unboundid.directory.server.tasks.ExecTask' in the set of allowed-task values, the requester must have the 'exec-task' privilege, and the command to execute must be listed in the 'exec-command-whitelist.txt' file in the server's config directory. The absolute path (on the server system) of the command to execute must be specified as the first unnamed trailing argument to this program, and the arguments to provide to that command (if any) should be specified as the remaining trailing arguments. The server root is used as the command's working directory, so any arguments that represent relative paths are interpreted as relative to that directory. |
search-and-mod-rate | Perform repeated searches against an LDAP directory server and modify each entry returned. |
search-logs | Search across log files to extract lines matching the provided patterns, like the grep command-line tool. The benefits of using this tool over grep are its ability to handle multi line log messages, extract log messages within a given time range, and the inclusion of rotated log files. |
searchrate | Perform repeated searches against an LDAP directory server. |
server-state | View information about the current state of the Directory Proxy Server process. |
set-delegated-admin-aci | Request that the Directory Proxy Server assign appropriate ACI for configured delegated administrators of the Delegated Admin API. |
setup | Perform the initial setup for the Directory Proxy Server instance. |

subtree-accessibility | List or update the set of subtree accessibility restrictions defined in the Directory Proxy Server. |
sum-file-sizes | Calculate the sum of the sizes for a set of files. |
summarize-access-log | Generate a summary of one or more access logs to display a number of metrics about operations processed within the server. |
transform-ldif | Apply one or more changes to entries or change records read from an LDIF file, writing the updating records to a new file. This tool can apply a variety of transformations, including scrambling attribute values, redacting attribute values, excluding attributes or entries, replacing existing attributes, adding new attributes, renaming attributes, and moving entries from one subtree to another. |
uninstall | Uninstall Directory Proxy Server. |
update | Update the Directory Proxy Server to a newer version by downloading and unzipping the new server install package on the same host as the server you wish to update. Then, use the update tool from the new server package to update the older version of the server. Before upgrading a server, you should ensure that it is capable of starting without severe or fatal errors. During the update process, the server is stopped if running, then the update performed, and a check is made to determine if the newly updated server starts without major errors. If it cannot start cleanly, the update will be backed out and the server returned to its prior state. See the revert-update tool for information on reverting an update. |
validate-acis | Validate a set of access control definitions contained in an LDAP server (including Sun/Oracle DSEE instances) or an LDIF file to determine whether they are acceptable for use in the Directory Proxy Server. Note that output generated by this tool is LDIF, but each entry in the output will have exactly one ACI, so entries that have more than one ACI will appear multiple times in the output with different ACI values. |
validate-file-signature | Validate file signatures. For best results, file signatures should be validated by the same instance used to generate the file. However, it might be possible to validate signatures generated on other instances in a replicated topology. |
validate-ldap-schema | Validate an LDAP schema read from one or more LDIF files. |
validate-ldif | Validate the contents of an LDIF file against the server schema. |
